But our mast would but buckle, forced from this sea
those eyes still watered, body kept from me

And while I've been tied around our shipwreck in sea
you find your lighthouse, put there by me

I've got this compass all broken and cracked
Now taking in water, from front end to back

we dragged and we soared**
I liked this poem a lot, the first two lines are the best to me. As for the line with the lighthouse, that is a rather common thing in poems like this, I would suggest finding something more personal that acts as that lighthouse for you. Just my novice critique, thanks for the good read! Thumbsup
